to feel meaningful

 

There are people so meaningful,

we need to feel meaningful to

them.

And that is more important

than anything --

if we are so privileged.




Those aghast at efforts to keep

candidate Trump off their

state's ballots -- have you asked

or otherwise sought to find out

why?




We who see Trump as a serious

dangerous threat to our rights and

rule of law are alwaybs being told

to work to understand the pro-Trump

advocates.  You, too, have the

responsibility as Americans to work

to understand others' views.




If you tend to identify iconoclastic,

bristle against restrictions, like to

find uncommon solutions, defy

authority, you will not do well

in a "great leader" nation.

Authoritarianism may well prove

fatal.




People claim to be pro-life?

Ask them:  do you eat meat?




If you work because it is work you

believe needs doing, you want others

to take up the work, maybe do it

better.  If you work for money, you

want to corner the market, drive

out any competent competition.
